He’s always been one of the best in the biz to us, and now a panel of our industry peers agree. The Fort Frances Times staff is delighted to announce that our own Jack Elliott has won second place in the Ontario Community Newspapers Association Better Newspaper Awards in the Humour Columnist of the Year category.
